A Xmas Decoration That I'm Going To Keep Up All Year Round

I brought 2 of these gorgeous silver effect angel tea light holders on Ebay, for the 2 of them it came to £11.50 with postage and even though they're quite small I'm still dead pleased with them and think that wasn't too much money to spend.

They stand about 6 inches high and the ones I've got are EXACTLY the same as in the photo Dooyoo have got, I won't bother going into mega detail describing them because you can see for yourself but just remember the actual ornaments are smaller than it looks above.

You have to assemble the tea light holder yourself but that's dead easy. The pieces all come in a small box about the size of a fag box and you just have to attach the post to the round tea light holder, hang the angels on the fan at the top and then balance that on the post.

Any standard size tea lights will fit in the holder, mine came with a plain white one but I've replaced them with scented Yankee Candle tea lights now.

The lovely thing about this tea light holder is that the heat of the candle makes the fan spin around and so you get the shape of the angels on your wall. They have to be on a completely level surface to work properly and it's beautiful when the candle has been burning for a few minutes because the angels spin nice and smooth and the shadowy effect of them is lovely.

I brought mine for Xmas decorations but think they're so pretty that I'm going to keep them out all year. The angels are all holding a star or Xmas tree or candle but they are only tiny so it doesn't matter if I'm still using them in July. I think they're too pretty to put away and just have out for a month every year.

I recommend these for anyone, even people who aren't mad keen on Xmas decorations will like them I reckon because they are very nicely designed and the silvery colour is eye catching. Also the fact that you only need to buy tea lights instead of larger candles makes them cheaper to run than other Xmas candle holders I've seen.
